When communicating with custom basketball uniform manufacturers about the details of customization, it is necessary to clarify the needs, communicate efficiently and ensure that both parties understand each other. The following are step-by-step suggestions:
Preliminary preparation: clarify your own needs
- Basic information
o Quantity, budget, delivery time (whether to produce in batches).
o Type of uniform (game uniform, training uniform, fan version) and applicable scenarios (professional, amateur, event commemoration). - Design details
o Style: sleeveless/short sleeve, loose/slim fit, hem slits, etc.
o Fabric: quick-drying and breathable (such as polyester fiber), moisture wicking technology, elasticity requirements.
o Color: provide Pantone color number or physical sample to avoid color difference.
o Pattern/Logo: vector file (AI/EPS format), clarify the position, size and embroidery/hot stamping process. - Functional requirements
o Whether UV protection, antibacterial treatment, breathable mesh splicing, etc. are required.
Contact the manufacturer: Ask questions efficiently
- List of core questions:
o Minimum order quantity (MOQ) and price ladder (such as 100 pieces vs. 500 pieces).
o Production cycle (including sample confirmation time) and expedited fees.
o Fabric options and performance comparison (such as wear resistance, weight).
o Printing process restrictions (whether complex gradients can be achieved).
o Size chart (whether personalized size classification is provided).
o Packaging method (independent packaging, tag customization). - Example questions:
“We have a four-color gradient logo in our design. Can your factory use thermal sublimation technology? What is the color difference range?”
“If the first order is 500 pieces, will the subsequent orders enjoy the same price?”
“Can you provide the revised sample before Wednesday? We plan to complete the delivery by the end of the month.”
